Litertaure and Civilization

...The Jacobean Age of English Literature coincides with the reign of James I, 1603 - 1625. During this time the literature became sophisticated, sombre, and conscious of social abuse and rivalry. The Jacobean Age produced rich prose and drama as well as the King James translation of the Bible. Shakespeare and Jonson wrote during the Jacobean Age, as well as John Donne, Francis Bacon, and Thomas Middleton. The Caroline Age of English Literature coincides with the reign of Charles I, 1625 - 1649. The writers of this age wrote with refinement and elegance. This era produced a circle of poets known as the "Cavalier Poets" and the dramatists of this age were the last to write in the Elizabethan tradition. The Commonwealth Period, also known as the Puritan Interregnum, of English Literature includes the literature produced during the time of Puritan leader Oliver Cromwell. This period produced the political writings of John Milton, Thomas Hobbes' political treatise Leviathan, and the prose of Andrew Marvell. In September of 1642, the Puritans closed theatres on moral and religious grounds. For the next eighteen years the theatres remained closed, accounting for the lack of drama produced during this time period. Practical View 1.

Sonnet 130

...Sonnet 130, the idea of love and is intensely expressed and taken to a greater level of intimacy where beauty lies within an individual and not just on the surface. The allegorical meaning is presented through images that allow the reader to understand the poem beyond its literal meaning. In Shakespeare’s Sonnet 130, the notion of perfection is evaluated to a point where it is almost made irrelevant in relation to beauty and true love. In Sonnet 130, it seems as if William Shakespeare laughs at the idea of idealism and perfection. The expressions of discontent and dissatisfaction give the poem a satiric tone. This poem is written in Shakespearean iambic pentameter, commonly used by Shakespeare in many of his poems. It follows the ABAB-CDCD-EFEF-GG rhyme scheme. The first 12 lines are all rhyming pairs, followed by the rhyming couplet. In the first 4 lines of the poem the speaker expresses his lady’s lack of perfection and almost complains about how she does not fit the description of the typical Elizabethan woman every other poet was writing about. Following the first 4 lines of the poem are a set of 8 lines which are represented in pairs. The first line in the pair reveals what the speaker finds appealing and ideal, and then the next line quickly shifts to how his love does not contain that appeal. Throughout the poem it seems as if the...

Jabberwocky By Lewis Carroll

...Lewis Carroll shows the theme of man vs. nature in his poem “Jabberwocky.” He uses the structure of the poem and his language to show this theme. Through his poem structure, his language and his use of imagery Carroll shows the theme of man vs. nature."Jabberwocky" is written solely in quatrains that have a regular ABAB, CDCD, EFEF rhyme scheme. The lines themselves are mostly written in iambic tetrameter.The only irregularity in the rhythm itself is the fact that the last line of each stanza only has three stresses, making it iambic trimeter. In the poem he uses quotes such as “The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!,” to show the man vs. nature theme. Man being the narrator and the “thing” (Jabberwocky) with jaws and claws being something of nature. The description of the Jabberwocky dehumanizes it, making it of nature. Also in the poem Carroll uses imagery to show the theme of man vs. nature. In the quote, “Beware the Jabberwock, my son The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!” you get the sense that the Jabberwocky is a great beast capable of killing you easily....

...Assignment 1 1. The rhyme scheme of the poem is abab cdcd efef gg 2. The tone of the poem refers to the emotional resonance, the feeling of the speaker. ”My Mistress eyes are nothing like the sun” 3. I agree that “in this poem the speaker seems to be mocking or making fun of the Mistress’s looks”. The speaker mentioned the idealised version of female beauty namely the idea of “rose” in a woman cheek “But no such roses see in her cheeks”. 4. It refers from the classical Petrarchan sonnet in that is not idealised or romanticise a woman’s beauty. I would like to mention the first line where the speaker says “My Mistress eyes are nothing like the sun”. He mentions the idealised version of female beauty. 5. A simile is a comparison that uses the word “like” or “as” in the poem we read “My Mistress eyes are nothing like a sun”, this line compares the mistress’s eyes to the sun. A metaphor is a comparison that does not use the word “like” or “as” but simple states that one thing is the same as another thing. In the sonnet we read “black wires grow on her head” this is a metaphor comparing the Mistress’s hair to wire. Personification is a form of metaphor; it involves turning a non-human object into a human aspect e.g. “I have seen roses damasked, red and white (line 5) roses turn into a human attribute. 6. Our society promotes ideals of woman’s beauty that are as unrealistic as those that are mentioned in the poem, the ideal women in old days is not perhaps...

...INSTRUCTIONS * Read the notes on sonnets. * Read the sonnets and answer the questions that follow each. * Complete the writing assignment Shakespeare’s Sonnets: The Mysteries of Love Shakespeare. The name calls to mind the great plays whose characters have come to life on stages around the world: Hamlet, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Othello. Yet had Shakespeare written no plays at all, his reputation as a poet, as the author of the Sonnets (1609), would still have been immense. There are 154 sonnets altogether; their speaker is male, and their chief subject is love. Beyond those three points, however, there is little agreement, only questions: • Is the sonnets’ speaker a dramatic character invented by Shakespeare, like Romeo, Macbeth, or Hamlet, or is he the poet himself? • If the sonnets are about the real man Shakespeare, then who are the real people behind the characters the sonnets mention? • Is the order in which the sonnets were originally published (probably without Shakespeare’s consent) the correct or the intended sequence? Could they be arranged to tell a more coherent story? Should they be so arranged? These and dozens of other questions about the sonnets have been asked and answered over and over again—but never to everybody’s satisfaction. We have hundreds of conflicting theories but no absolutely convincing answers. About the individual sonnets, though, if not the whole sequence, agreement is perfect: They are among the supreme utterances in English...

Blake's London

...Stanza 1: 1. Would it be possible to argue that there is a contrast between the streets and the people in them? (Think about the meaning of “chartered” as opposed to “weakness”, “woe”.) - Yes. -‘’Charter’’ often refers to a document issued by the government or political officials that grants certain rights or privileges. And in this case the speaker is suggesting that the streets of London are increasingly the subject of government control. - All those ominous hints of in the word ‘’charter’d’’ are made so much more explicit when the speaker tells us what he sees. He is able to observe in every face he meets, the ‘’marks of weakness, marks of woe’’. These sad signs are on every face he meets. Stanza 2: 2. The poet hears “mind-forged manacles” in these cries. This is a metaphor (see definition on the next page) – but for what? What is it that man’s mind has created? And why is the word “manacles” used about it? - Manacles are shackles, handcuffs etc. - Actually is just about anything that confines, or constricts. And this goes really well hand in hand with the ‘’charter’d’’ in the first stanza. - The mind-forged can refer a couple of things: - Some kind of combination between the industrial revolution and the politics that lead to ‘’charter’d’’ streets. - Blake clearly likes to blur the lines between imagination and reality, so maybe it’s possible that these manacles aren’t real but, potentially forged by his own mind. - And then there is the possibility that...

Shakespeare Analysis

...Ugly and Lovely A man who has ever fallen in love with a woman probably has felt a loss for words. Men have been enthralled by a woman’s beauty are at times speechless when it comes to expressing their true feelings he has for a special girl. Also the idea to have make love with beautiful women, to create more beautiful people in this world is one is expressed in Shakespeare ‘s sonnet. This famous man had a way to do it and did it in such a way; it should be considered an art form. Shakespeare’s ability to pour out emotions and his use of word play has transcended through the years. Many of his works can still be seen in modern day media. The sonnets that I have found fascinating are Sonnets 18 and Sonnet 130. What made me want to analyze these sonnets is because many people associate Shakespeare with romance. After reading these pieces of literature one can see this in these two sonnets exemplify such qualities. A major theme in sonnet 18 that can be felt is a love, lust, and endearment. These sonnets may have similar themes where a woman is central point, he is able to contrast and contradict his own work. In Sonnet 18 Shakespeare compares a woman to a summer’s day, which is full of life and enjoyment. Although this is true, it can be said that Shakespeare is writing the poem about himself. In sonnet 130 Shakespeare changes the dynamic of how sonnets are written. Usually sonnets put women on a pedestal, but in 130 he approach is different. I believe he does this as a joke...

Because the sonnets written by William Shakespeare, was so beloved, all of Shakespeare’s sonnet-heritage is being called Shakespearean sonnets. There are different indicators that, helps to define a sonnet. First of all ‘Shall I Comepare Thee’ consists of fourteen lines, where the eight first lines called the octave presents which aspects the poem will regard. The last six lines called the sestet gives a personal view of what the poem really is about. ‘Shall I Comepare Thee’ is divided by three quatrains followed by a couplet and has the traditional characteristic rhyme scheme of a Shakespearean sonnet: abab cdcd efef gg. The metrical aspect of sonnet 18 is that the poem got written in iambic form with one unstressed syllable followed by one stressed syllable. The sonnet has five feet in each line and therefore it is under pentameter. For example if the 2 first lines in Sonnet 18 should be divided into the rhythm of five in stressed and unstressed syllables it would look like this: The stressed syllables, is the ‘green’ ones and unstressed syllables is the ‘red’ ones. Shall I - compare - thee to - a sum - mer’s day? Thou art - more love - ly and - more tem - perate.

Beauty By Billy Collins Summary

...This poem brings to light the conflict between beauty, goodness, and love against the selfishness of the world. The speaker talks to the subject of the poem, trying to convince him almost that he should share his beauty with the world, but it is obvious that there is some resistance to this idea. Another related conflict that is presented is propagation, whose alternative is greatly discouraged by the speaker. The speaker explains this idea that people who are beautiful ‘owe’ it the world to make offspring, who are assumed to beautiful too. Another subtler theme is death vs. life. This is presented through the idea that when someone has a child they are becoming immortal via the lives of their children. This sonnet employs the use of iambic...

Shakespeare’s Writings

...Shakespeare’s Writings William Shakespeare used many different writing styles in order to capture the minds and hearts of his audience. He wrote thirty eight plays (Boyce 119), two narratives (Boyce 294), and 154 sonnets (Boyce 607). In order to do his writing, Shakespeare had to put his mind, body, and soul into his work. Shakespeare wrote three different types of genres, comedies, histories, and tragedies. “A comedy is a drama that provokes laughter at human behavior, usually involves romantic love, and usually has a happy ending.” The plots of the comedies were usually about the struggle between two young lovers. Shakespeare wrote eighteen comedies (Boyce 119). His histories dealt with England’s historical events. He wrote his histories to define the perfect king. Shakespeare wrote ten histories (Boyce 294). “A tragedy is a drama dealing with a noble protagonist placed in a highly stressful situation that leads to a disastrous, usually fatal conclusion.” He developed his tragedies from other tragic plays. Shakespeare based all of his plays from these three genres (Boyce 652). Shakespeare had five major themes about which he wrote. He used these themes in almost all of his plays. In his comedy, The Taming of the Shrew, a “drunkard” named Christopher Slay is tricked into believing he is a lord and later finds himself in many conflicts with the ladies of the house (Chazelle, n.p). In this comedy, Shakespeare demonstrated contrasting worlds by comparing men versus women...
